[Intro: Guitar Solo]
Ow!

[Verse 1: David Lee Roth]
Ain't got no money, got no house on the hill
Tell me, honey, will your lovin' pay my bills?
Yeah, pay my bills
The neighbors gettin' crazy 'bout the noise next door
It's a major violation, carried away for sure
Yeah, I know
See, I've been tried and convicted, it's winner take all
I want a run for my money, that's all

[Chorus: David Lee Roth & (Van Halen)]
I don't wanna
(I don't wanna hear about it later)
Uh-hear about it later
(I don't wanna, baby, I don't wanna)
I ain't gonna
(I don't wanna hear about it later)
Take it back, baby
(I don't wanna, baby I don't wanna)

[Verse 2: David Lee Roth]
Yeah, I'm walkin', don't need no ride
No explanation, just wastin' time, yeah
All my time
I've been tried and convicted, it's winner take all
I want a run for my money, that's all

[Chorus: David Lee Roth & (Van Halen)]
And I don't wanna
(I don't wanna hear about it later)
I do what I want to
(I don't wanna, baby, I don't wanna)
I ain't gonna
(I don't wanna hear about it later)
Do what I want to you
(I don't wanna, baby I don't wanna)

[Bridge: David Lee Roth]
But you can try me at home, if it feels alright
But I ain't home at night
Ow!

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Bridge: David Lee Roth]
But you can try me at home, if it feels alright
But I ain't home at night
Hahaha!

[Outro: David Lee Roth]
I don't wanna
I'll do what I please
I don't wanna
I'll maybe do a look 'n move, yeah
Don't look at me baby
Yes, better take my chances
I, I been dreaming 'bout tomorrow
I don't, I don't, I don't
Whaa-ow!
I don't wanna hear about that, hey
No-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa!

Van Halen

Van Halen is one of the most iconic American rock bands of all time. Formed in Pasadena, California in 1972, the group’s primary line-up consisted of Eddie Van Halen on guitar, Alex Van Halen on drums, David Lee Roth providing lead vocals, and Michael Anthony providing bass duties and significant harmonies.

Their first six albums, recorded and released between 1977–1984, are considered to be classics and pioneering efforts in the field of hard rock. Eddie Van Halen’s groundbreaking guitar sound and techniques completely changed the landscape of music and radio culture in the 1980s. His and brother Alex’s virtuosity, along with David Lee Roth’s charisma and bassist Michael Anthony’s foundational contributions garnered the band early comparisons to their predecessors—Led Zeppelin—a group who had a profound influence on them. Though, even more so than Jimmy Page, Eddie cites Eric Clapton as having the biggest impact on his playing.

In 1977, after recording a demo with Gene Simmons (who wanted the band to change their name to “Daddy Longlegs”) they were introduced to KISS‘ management, who told Simmons they wouldn’t sign them
